One Omaha’s mission is to empower people where they live through education, training, and engagement to develop thriving neighborhoods. Our organization benefits the Omaha community by addressing the lack of knowledge and resources available for residents to sustain a better quality of life. By focusing on leadership development for residents and capacity building for community groups, One Omaha helps build prosperous futures and advance the quality of life in our city.
In 2021, One Omaha became an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit.
